Interesting product, but $30 per user per month just seem like too much. I don't have that pain though, is it justifiable? Is it worth for a data science team with 5+ people pay over 150 dollars a month for this? I am asking out of curiosity.



If a 5 person data science team gets any value of out this -- even if it only prevents frustration and literally doesn't save any time -- it's worth it. At a minimum, that team is costing $50k/month, so in theory they should be driving much more than that in value... $150/mo to support that much value is nothing.


Redash offer this as a feature[1]. Their product starts at $49 per month for unlimited users with up to three data sources from a wide range[2], not just Postgres.

I think the Google Sheets export is very valuable, it opens up data to non-developer analysts and general business users. But I also can't see how this product is competitive at this price with only this functionality.

Thanks. We think it justifies the time saving of doing manual exports and keeping Sheets connected to the database - this way data can be easily refreshed by re-running the query. We looked around similar tools and found pricing to be fairly competitive


I think its competitive. Many businesses run off of spreadsheets, and armies of folks enter data into them manually or with great integration pain. Self-serve business data in sheet form is pretty much the ideal UX for something on the order of millions of business knowledge workers. $30/mo is a pittance for that superpower.

Its certainly more affordable than Tableau and other traditional BI tools.

The userbase is probably not well represented on HN...
